Heya John, If the data will eventually be coming from a database, don't use XML. See my previous reply on why not to use JSON with a text file ;-)
When communicating with a database I'd avoid using XML (and even JSON for that matter). Have a look at Flash Remoting instead which allows you to receive data in a format that Flash understands. For PHP, there's AMFPHP: http://www.amfphp.org Now with all that said, I'm wondering why you'd want to store menu information in a database at all. Storing this in a database doesn't really make sense to me: about us news portfolio regards, Muzak ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Trentini" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Saturday, May 05, 2007 10:04 AM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] LoadVars array.length problem > That sounds right, even to me, eheheh! > > I was trying to test my skills with AS. > > I eventually need to get the data, via PHP, from a database. > I suppose I will need to format my php response to produce an xml file but I > am quuuuuuite new to this and am tentative.. > > Thanks MuzaK ^_^ > > JohnT _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
